verb
1. bring up (a child) with care and affection
“the art of mothering”
2. give birth to
synonyms: give birth to, have, bear, produce, birth, ... more

Do you agree with this definition of mother?


Look up the definition of GOD in the dictionary. Write it down.

The definition of God is rather generic. Here is what I learned about who and what God is in grade school:

Q. Who is God?
A. God is the Creator of heaven and earth, and of all things.

Q. What is God?
A. God is a spirit infinitely perfect.

Q. Had God a beginning
A. God had no beginning; He always was and He always will be.

Q. Where is God?
A. God is everywhere.

Q. If God is everywhere, why do we not see Him?
A. We do not see God, because He is a pure spirit and cannot be seen with bodily eyes.

Q. Does God see us?
A. God sees us and watches over us.

Q. Does God know all things?
A. God knows all things, even our most secret thoughts, words, and actions.

Q. Can God do all things?
A. God can do all things, and nothing is hard or impossible to Him.

Q. Is God just, holy, and merciful?
A. God is all just, all holy, all merciful, as He is infinitely perfect.

Q. Is there but one God?
A. Yes; there is but one God.

Q. Why can there be but one God?
A. There can be but one God, because God, being supreme and infinite, cannot have an equal.

Q. How many Persons are there in God?
A. In God there are three Divine Persons, really distinct, and equal in all things-the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost.

Q. Is the Father God?
A. The Father is God and the first Person of the Blessed Trinity.

Q. Is the Son God?
A. The Son is God and the second Person of the Blessed Trinity.

Q. Is the Holy Ghost God?
A. The Holy Ghost is God and the third Person of the Blessed Trinity.

Q. What is the Blessed Trinity?
A. The Blessed Trinity is one God in three Divine Persons.

Q. Are the three Divine Persons one and the same God?
A. The three Divine Persons are one and the same God, having one and the same Divine nature.

Do you disagree with any of these statements?


- In your mind, is Mary in the same class as GOD, in the same genera?

No, in my mind, Mary is not in the same class as GOD, not in the same genera. Like you and me, Mary is a creature composed of body and soul, and made to the image and likeness of God.


- Do you imagine that any of Mary’s genes were in the Chromosomes of Jesus?

I responded to this question in post 477.


Regarding your statement about my syllogism, what is broken about saying Jesus, son of Mary, is God?

Saying Mary is the Mother of God is the broken syllogism. You response regarding the genes of Mary and the Chromosomes of Jesus was not an answer. Do you believe Jesus had genetic derivative from Mary for part, any part, of His chromosomes? ... And can the second give rise to the one from whom the second is arisen?
